Recipe Breakdown

Servings: 2

Ingredients:

  • 2 Tbs. extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 Tbs. Bragg’s Apple Cider Vinegar
  • 1 Tbs. Organic Tamari (gluten-free soy sauce)
  • 1 Tbs. organic extra-virgin coconut oil
  • 6 ounces sirloin, cut into thin strips
  • 2 cups broccoli florets
  • 2 cloves minced garlic
  • 1-2 tsp. fresh-grated ginger (adjust to your taste)
  • ½ tsp. crushed red pepper flakes (optional, for heat)
  • 2 cups thinly sliced cabbage (green or red)
  • 1 lime, cut into wedges

Directions:

  1. Prepare the Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, Bragg’s apple cider vinegar, and Tamari. Set the sauce aside.
  2. Sauté the Beef: Heat a large stainless-steel skillet over medium-high heat and add the coconut oil. Once hot, add the thinly sliced sirloin and brown on both sides. Once cooked, remove the beef from the pan and keep it warm.
  3. Cook the Vegetables: In the same skillet, add the broccoli, minced garlic, grated ginger, and red pepper flakes (if using). Stir-fry until the broccoli is just beginning to become tender, about 3-4 minutes.
  4. Add Cabbage: Stir in the sliced cabbage and continue to cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the vegetables reach your desired level of tenderness.
  5. Combine and Serve: Remove the skillet from heat and return the cooked beef to the pan. Add the oil and vinegar mixture, stirring until everything is well-coated.
  6. Garnish: Serve the stir fry hot, garnished with lime wedges on the side for an extra burst of flavor. Squeeze the lime juice over the dish just before eating for a refreshing touch!
